1 S o it was, as the multitude pressed about Him to hear the word of God, that He stood by the Lake of Gennesaret,

A, i te mano e aki ana ki a ia ki te whakarongo ki te kupu a te Atua, na e tu ana ia i te taha o te roto o Kenehareta,

2 a nd saw two boats standing by the lake; but the fishermen had gone from them and were washing their nets.

Na ka kite ia i etahi kaipuke e rua e tu ana i te taha o te roto: ko nga kaihao ia kua riro i runga, e horoi ana i a ratou kupenga.

3 T hen He got into one of the boats, which was Simon’s, and asked him to put out a little from the land. And He sat down and taught the multitudes from the boat.

Na ka eke ia ki tetahi o nga kaipuke, ki te Haimona, ka mea ki a ia kia neke atu ki waho tata. Na noho ana ia, whakaakona ana e ia te mano i runga i te kaipuke.

4 W hen He had stopped speaking, He said to Simon, “Launch out into the deep and let down your nets for a catch.”

A ka mutu tana korero, ka mea ia ki a Haimona, Neke atu ki te wahi hohonu, ka tuku ai i a koutou kupenga ki te hao.

5 B ut Simon answered and said to Him, “Master, we have toiled all night and caught nothing; nevertheless at Your word I will let down the net.”

Na ka whakahoki a Haimona, ka mea ki a ia, E kara, mahi noa matou i te po roa nei, te mau tetahi: heoi nau na te kupu me tuku e ahau te kupenga.

6 A nd when they had done this, they caught a great number of fish, and their net was breaking.

A, no ta ratou meatanga i tenei, he mano tini nga ika i mau i a ratou: ka whakapakaru ta ratou kupenga.

7 S o they signaled to their partners in the other boat to come and help them. And they came and filled both the boats, so that they began to sink.

Na ka tawhiri ratou ki o ratou hoa i tera o nga kaipuke kia hoe mai hei hoa mo ratou. A, i to ratou taenga mai, whakakiia ana nga kaipuke e rua, no ka whakatotohu.

8 W hen Simon Peter saw it, he fell down at Jesus’ knees, saying, “Depart from me, for I am a sinful man, O Lord!”

Otiia, no te kitenga o Haimona Pita, ka hinga iho ki nga turi o Ihu, ka mea, Mawehe atu i ahau, e te Ariki, he tangata hara hoki ahau.

9 F or he and all who were with him were astonished at the catch of fish which they had taken;

Mau tonu hoki tona miharo me to ona hoa katoa, ki te haonga o nga ika i haoa nei e ratou:

10 a nd so also were James and John, the sons of Zebedee, who were partners with Simon. And Jesus said to Simon, “Do not be afraid. From now on you will catch men.”

I pera ano hoki a Hemi raua ko Hoani, he tama raua na Heperi, he hoa hoki no Haimona. Na ka mea a Ihu ki a Haimona, Kaua e mataku; i enei wa e takoto ake nei ka hao tangata koe.

11 S o when they had brought their boats to land, they forsook all and followed Him. Jesus Cleanses a Leper

A ka whakauria nga kaipuke ki uta, mahue ake nga mea katoa i a ratou, a aru ana i a ia.

12 A nd it happened when He was in a certain city, that behold, a man who was full of leprosy saw Jesus; and he fell on his face and implored Him, saying, “Lord, if You are willing, You can make me clean.”

Na, i a ia i tetahi o nga pa, na ko etahi tangata kapi tonu i te repera; a, i tona kitenga i a Ihu, ka takoto tapapa, ka inoi ki a ia, ka mea, E te Ariki, ki te pai koe, e taea ahau e koe te mea kia ma.

13 T hen He put out His hand and touched him, saying, “I am willing; be cleansed.” Immediately the leprosy left him.

Na ka totoro tona ringa, ka pa ki a ia, ka mea, E pai ana ahau: kia ma koe. A mutu tonu ake tona repera.

14 A nd He charged him to tell no one, “But go and show yourself to the priest, and make an offering for your cleansing, as a testimony to them, just as Moses commanded.”

A ka whakatupato ia i a ia kia kaua e korerotia ki te tangata; Engari haere, kia kite te tohunga i a koe, kawea atu hoki mo tou whakamakanga nga mea i whakaritea e Mohi, hei mea whakaatu ki a ratou.

15 H owever, the report went around concerning Him all the more; and great multitudes came together to hear, and to be healed by Him of their infirmities.

Heoi tino paku atu ana tona rongo: he tokomaha noa atu hoki i huihui ki te whakarongo, kia whakaorangia ai e ia o ratou ngoikoretanga.

16 S o He Himself often withdrew into the wilderness and prayed. Jesus Forgives and Heals a Paralytic

Otira haere ana ia, ko ia anake ki te koraha ki te inoi.

17 N ow it happened on a certain day, as He was teaching, that there were Pharisees and teachers of the law sitting by, who had come out of every town of Galilee, Judea, and Jerusalem. And the power of the Lord was present to heal them.

A i tetahi o aua ra, e whakaako ana ia, me te noho ano nga Parihi me nga kaiwhakaako o te ture, i haere mai nei i nga kainga katoa o Kariri, o Huria, o Hiruharama: i reira ano te kaha o te Ariki hei whakaora i a ratou.

18 T hen behold, men brought on a bed a man who was paralyzed, whom they sought to bring in and lay before Him.

Na ka kawea mai e etahi tangata i runga i te moenga tetahi tangata, he pararutiki: mea noa ratou kia kawea ia ki roto, kia whakatakotoria ki tona aroaro.

19 A nd when they could not find how they might bring him in, because of the crowd, they went up on the housetop and let him down with his bed through the tiling into the midst before Jesus.

A, i te korenga e kitea e ratou he huarahi hei kawenga mai ia ia ki roto, i te mano o te tangata, ka kakea te whare, a tukua iho ana ia ra nga taera, me te moenga ano, ki waenganui, ki te aroaro o Ihu.

20 W hen He saw their faith, He said to him, “Man, your sins are forgiven you.”

A, i tona kitenga i to ratou whakapono, ka mea ia ki a ia, E hoa, ka oti ou hara te muru.

21 A nd the scribes and the Pharisees began to reason, saying, “Who is this who speaks blasphemies? Who can forgive sins but God alone?”

Na ka anga ka whakaaroaro nga karaipi me nga Parihi, ka mea, Ko wai tenei nana nga kupu kohukohu? Ko wai hei muru hara? ko te Atua anake.

22 B ut when Jesus perceived their thoughts, He answered and said to them, “Why are you reasoning in your hearts?

Otira i mohio a Ihu ki a ratou whakaaroaronga, ka oho, ka mea ki a ratou, He aha ta koutou e whakaaroaro na i roto i o koutou ngakau?

23 W hich is easier, to say, ‘Your sins are forgiven you,’ or to say, ‘Rise up and walk’?

Ko tehea te mea takoto noa, ko te mea, Ka oti ou hara te muru; ko te mea ranei, Whakatika haere?

24 B ut that you may know that the Son of Man has power on earth to forgive sins” —He said to the man who was paralyzed, “I say to you, arise, take up your bed, and go to your house.”

Otiia kia matau ai koutou he mana muru hara to te Tama a te tangata i runga i te whenua, ka mea ia ki te pararutiki, Ko taku kupu tenei ki a koe, Whakatika, tangohia ake tou moenga, haere ki tou whare.

25 I mmediately he rose up before them, took up what he had been lying on, and departed to his own house, glorifying God.

Na whakatika tonu ake ia i to ratou aroaro, tangohia ake ana te mea i takoto ai ia, haere ana ki tona whare, a me te whakakororia i te Atua.

26 A nd they were all amazed, and they glorified God and were filled with fear, saying, “We have seen strange things today!” Matthew the Tax Collector

Na miharo ana ratou katoa, ka whakakororia i te Atua, ki tonu hoki ratou i te mataku, ka mea, Puta ke nga mea i kite nei tatou inaianei.

27 A fter these things He went out and saw a tax collector named Levi, sitting at the tax office. And He said to him, “Follow Me.”

A, i muri i enei mea, ka haere ia, ka kite i tetahi pupirikana, ko Riwai te ingoa, e noho ana i te wahi tango takoha: ka mea ki a ia, Arumia mai ahau.

28 S o he left all, rose up, and followed Him.

Na whakarerea ake e ia nga mea katoa, whakatika ana, aru ana i a ia.

29 T hen Levi gave Him a great feast in his own house. And there were a great number of tax collectors and others who sat down with them.

Na ka taka e Riwai he hakari nui mana i tona whare: he tokomaha hoki nga pupirikana me nga tangata ke i noho tahi ratou.

30 A nd their scribes and the Pharisees complained against His disciples, saying, “Why do You eat and drink with tax collectors and sinners?”

Na ka amuamu nga Parihi me o ratou karaipi ki ana akonga, ka mea He aha koutou ka kai tahi ai, ka inu tahi ai me nga pupirikana, me nga tangata hara?

31 J esus answered and said to them, “Those who are well have no need of a physician, but those who are sick.

Na ka whakahoki a Ihu, ka mea ki a ratou, Kahore he aha o nga tangata ora e meatia ai e te rata, engari o te hunga e mate ana.

32 I have not come to call the righteous, but sinners, to repentance.” Jesus Is Questioned About Fasting

Kihai ahau i haere mai ki te karanga i te hunga tika, engari i te hunga hara, kia ripeneta.

33 T hen they said to Him, “Why do the disciples of John fast often and make prayers, and likewise those of the Pharisees, but Yours eat and drink?”

Na ka mea ratou ki a ia, Ko nga akonga a Hoani hono tonu te nohopuku, te inoi, me nga akonga ano a nga Parihi; ko au ia e kai ana, e inu ana.

34 A nd He said to them, “Can you make the friends of the bridegroom fast while the bridegroom is with them?

Na ko te meatanga a Ihu ki a ratou, E taea ranei e koutou te mea kia nohopuku nga tama o te whare marena, i te mea kei a ratou te tane marena hou?

35 B ut the days will come when the bridegroom will be taken away from them; then they will fast in those days.”

Na, tera e tae mai nga ra; a, ina tangohia te tane marena hou i a ratou, katahi ratou ka nohopuku i aua ra.

36 T hen He spoke a parable to them: “No one puts a piece from a new garment on an old one; otherwise the new makes a tear, and also the piece that was taken out of the new does not match the old.

I korerotia ano e ia tetahi kupu whakarite ki a ratou; E kore e haea e te tangata tetahi wahi o te kahu hou hei papaki mo te kahu tawhito; kei pakaru te mea hou, a e kore te papaki i tangohia i te mea hou e hangai ki te mea tawhito.

37 A nd no one puts new wine into old wineskins; or else the new wine will burst the wineskins and be spilled, and the wineskins will be ruined.

E kore hoki te tangata e riringi i te waina hou ki nga ipu tawhito; kei pakaru nga ipu i te waina hou, na ka maringi, a kore ake nga ipu.

38 B ut new wine must be put into new wineskins, and both are preserved.

Engari me riringi te waina hou ki nga ipu hou.

39 A nd no one, having drunk old wine, immediately desires new; for he says, ‘The old is better.’”

Ka inu hoki te tangata i te waina tawhito, e kore ia e hiahia ki te mea hou: e mea hoki ia, Erangi te mea tawhito.
